Brandi Carlile and Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready teamed up for a pair of performances as part of the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation’s livestream benefit concert on Friday. The pair played a cover of Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” and then performed a cover of Emmylou Harris’ “Red Dirt Girl.”
Epicure For Crohn’s & Colitis was held to raise funds for the foundation’s Northwest Chapter in the aim of finding a cure for the conditions. Carlile and McCready closed out the livestream event by collaborating on the title tracks from Pink Floyd’s 1975 studio album and Emmylou Harris’ 2000 studio album.
Watch the livestream below with “Wish You Were Here” at the 35-minute mark and “Red Dirt Girl” around the 1:06:00 mark:
